All good feedback... I sent this along to the devs. From: David Mazzaccaro [mailto:david.mazzacc...@hudsonmobility.com] Sent: Tuesday, October 19, 2010 2:15 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: ESET vs VIPRE
YUP > A few machines had issues with the recent agent upgrade. I had to manually remove and reinstall VIPRE on 3 or 4. An annoyance but relatively minor. YUP > I'm irritated that the installation of remote update servers want to install SQL Server Express even though they don't need a database to hand out definition updates. YUP > Overall, though, I'm satisfied with the level of protection, and also with the ease of deployment and management. I'll add that a few definition updates wrecked havoc: The notorious switch to 5000 version defs, the July '09 false positives on laptops, the 5486 definition "file renaming" cluster #?^& And just the overall massive size of the definition updates. If you have remote offices, you'll likely want to set up remote update servers. The documentation on this is poor, but not awful. For example, remote update servers require port 1434 to be open... but if you search the knowledgebase on sunbeltsoftware.com for "1434"... you get nothing.

There are occasional minor annoyances with VIPRE but it runs well and provides the best active protection available. We're up for renewal in a couple months and I'm not looking to switch to another product. Roger Wright ___ Life isn't like a box of chocolates.
